Digital television and analogue broadcasting


The advent of digital broadcasting is fairly recent in the UK. Free-to-air digital broadcasts have long been seen as an alternative to other television viewing methods such as Sky or Freesat. These both have their own advantages with Sky having many channels and Freesat offering HD (high definition) television. Freeview broadcasting has been very popular in the UK and the channel choice will increase. Digital free-to-air television offers a transition from analogue broadcasting using the existing technology you have in your house. A set-top-box is required to decrypt digital signals that are received through your aerial equipment.
